Beautiful Living : Casual Elegance

Remember the Davidsons? Well, here is their elegant living room adjacent to the fabulous wet bar. Turquoise and chocolate brown, sparkling mirrors and crystal lamps ... simply stunning! The Davidson's worked with Ryland Woodard, a Richmond based Interior Designer, who did an amazing job of transforming this space into an elegant room, yet casual enough to "live" in!

Plum Pretty

Color your home with the feeling of Fall. The wall in this dining room of this beautiful home in Charleston is painted in Jack Horner's Plum by Pratt and Lambert. Add this hydrangea watercolor as an accent for a pop of color.

For your wardrobe, more hydrangea in a beautiful puckered blouse to pair with this luscious plum colored bag.

... and more plum in the kitchen with this hand made trivet and mouth watering gingered blackberry and black plum shortcakes ... click here for the recipe!

Pretty in Pink

oh so pretty in pink... delicious creamy frosting and luscious peonies

beautiful pink hotels and romantic hand-written love letters...

party balloons against the bright blue sky and sweet ice cream floats...

a glamorous night out or some quiet alone time...

What are your "pretty in pink" pleasures?
